Forte Port Koa

6-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The Forte Port Koa builds on the foundation of Michael Kelly’s Forte Port line by adding unique tonewoods for an exceptional sound. A flame koa top with a mahogany back and sides means this instrument will look iconic and sound rich and colorful. A comfortable neck profile and 22.5" scale length make it easily playable, and the Fishman preamp allows you to plug in and play wherever you need to.

Highlights

  • Built With Koa Tonewood

    The Forte Port Koa brings the classic tonewood to Michael Kelly’s acoustic lineup. The koa top not only adds an elegant visual distinction to the guitar, but helps add to the top-end and midrange while the mahogany sides and back help balance out the overall tone with some added warmth.

    Supreme Playability

    The Forte Port Koa features a comfortable c-shaped neck profile and a dual-action truss rod for dialing in the best action and feel. An aggressive cutaway also allows easy access to the upper frets, making tapping and soloing easier for those high notes.
